East African Church Music
If we think our music in East Africa must match the music of the West, we are aiming to please man rather than to please God. If we are building up our sound equipment to make ourselves more likable, we are aiming to please man rather than to please God. If we are blasting our … Continue reading East African Church Music
“Go-Fish”
If you have ever been a kid, had a kid, or spent time around children, you have likely said and heard these words a few thousand times: “go-fish.” To the late-in-life learner of the English language, it would seem like an error, an incorrect use of words, or a confusing way to talk about fishing…but … Continue reading “Go-Fish”
On The State, and The State of Christianity
The Communist position viewed religion as “the opiate of the masses.” The religious were counted as foolish and dangerous, a threat.

Many of you helped us to ‘go.’ We learned so much during that season; we made so many deep friendships, discipled several young friends, and we met and shared with home groups to encourage local outreach, evangelism, and missions. I learned a lot … Continue reading The Augustine Book Table

The world shouts, “you must be better and do better.” The Gospel whispers, “you must be made new.” What does “better” even mean, in a world that knows not up from down, right from left? What do words mean at all in a post-modern world deprived of value, where Truth has been dumped in the … Continue reading Be better. Do better.
